Wishbone Ash's Twin Barrels Burning and Raw To The Bone Released as Official and Remastered Definitive Editions - OUT NOW!

Each album is available on 2CD and Picture Disc LP with extensive bonus materials!

These are the FIRST OFFICIAL re-releases of Twin Barrels Burning from 1982 and Raw to the Bone from 1985 in decades and DEFINITIVE EDITIONS with all new 2017 REMASTERS.

Both albums feature new liner notes by rock journalist Dave Ling, including new interviews with all the surviving members and archive quotes from the late Trevor Bolder.

Twin Barrels Burning - This smoking hot 21 TRACK 2CD set includes the American Remixes of the album on a second disc, which have NEVER BEEN ON CD BEFORE.Raw To The Bone - This mammoth 23 TRACK 2CD set has bonus tracks including a HOLY GRAIL for Wishbone Ash fans – ALL FOUR UNRELEASED SONGS from the post-album 1986 SESSIONS. The bonus CD also includes The Friday Rock Show BBC Sessions, which are often described as better than the album versions, plus four live tracks from Hammersmith.

“Neither of these hard hitting albums were what I would call typical mainstream Wishbone Ash fare. In other words they weren't heavy on the signature harmonised vocals and twin lead guitar lines. However, they both show that we could rock out with the best of them.” - Andy Powell

“It's a chapter of Wishbone Ash's career we are proud of and we know fans have been asking for these re-releases for years. A great deal of care has been given by everyone in sourcing master tapes, taking part in interviews for the liner notes and presenting these as band endorsed Definitive Editions. It's unbelievable to think they've never been on CD until now!” - Laurie Wisefield

These re-issues by Cherry Red are FULLY APPROVED by Steve Upton, Laurie Wisefield, Andy Powell, Merv Spence, and the estate of Trevor Bolder.

The second disc of bonus tracks accompanying each CD will not be available with any other product or box set.

Mary, as a name, somehow suggests an “older” band and it came as no real
surprise to find that they are a Norwegian prog band from the 70’s. The band
were considered by many to be one of the best prog bands in Norway with their
brand of music a mixture of heavy hard rock tunes plus clear indications of a
more symphonic nature, although that only really showed itself on their 3rd,
and last, studio album, Janus, in
1973. Last that is, until now, with the release of New Dawn. This would appear to be an apt title for a release which
follows 24 years after an album of blues covers, released in 1992.

At their height, Aunt Mary were “up there” with the likes
of Deep Purple, Ten Years After, King Crimson, Jethro Tull and many more. After
the release of Janus in 1973, the
band split up but did a few sporadic appearances, as well as releasing the
blues covers album mentioned earlier.

this time a year ago I had the experience of listening to Anaya Music and
providing coverage of Eternity. It was an uplifting experience and a memorable
listen as I recall. Now with
February drawing closer AONKI – Gateway
of Love (Cosmic New Age Music) will arrive. Once
again, the recording features several exceptional collaborations between Anaya
Music and a live virtual symphony orchestra recorded in the heart of Prague,
the capital of the Czech republic.
The orchestra combines members of the finest ensembles
in Prague, including the Czech Philharmonic.
I think
they should rename the orchestra to “The Live Spiritual Orchestra.” If you have
been exposed to Anaya Music you will understand what that means. If this is
your first journey with this music you will find out very quickly. Either way,
this is spiritually uplifting music that leaves a smile on your soul. It’s like
the term digital footprint, there is an everlasting m…

will be my sixth voyage into the world of Project Grand Slam (PGS). So, what is
this experience going to be like this time? I would expect the same great
combination of jazz, rock, funk, and pop that I always enjoyed.

So, now we are Trippin’
into 2018 with PGS. And the first track titled “1972” was like turning on the
radio and hearing the Average White Band or Tower of Power. Yes sir, on the AM
dial, it came blaring through back in those days.

The title track is a real gas too. This number has some
great sax from Castro and a killer rhythm section courtesy of Miller and Mateo.
It shines the spotlight on them clear and bright. Let me tell you, those two
are like the dynamic duo, kind of like a p…
